BIO - Marina Perez Simão
Marina Perez Simão was born in 1981 in Vitória - Espírito Santo, Brasil. She currently lives and work in the city of São Paulo.
Her work is a process based fundamentally on the accumulation and juxtaposition of memories and images. Through the crossing of personal experiences with multiple referents -from areas such as philosophy, literature and journalism-, she has developed her own work.
The variety of techniques makes his work his own, from collage, drawing or oil painting.
“... Her work stylizes the coexistence of images, their own and others' stories that are imprinted on their retina, through color, shape, and the absence of both…” x Sol Alac 2023
"...As an artist it takes a while to become yourself. When I first started, I had trouble with color. I couldn't figure out where it was needed. Nothing in painting should be free..." x Marina Perez Simão

EXHIBITION LOVE
Eyddos is a contemporary art project driven by passion, a deep desire for transformation, and love.
We believe in art as a way to build the present and in using our voice in harmony with movements like LGTBIQ+, feminist, and anti-racist.
At Eyddos, people inhabit the works, occupy the space within them,
and become part of the project that was built with so much love.
The desire to transform this statement piece into an amulet, into protection for those who, by transforming fragments of individuality,
decide to celebrate all communities, the flags of all of us as a second skin, in an EYDDOS.
Thanks to the fusion with artists, the material transforms into an affective revolution, into these works of art to WEAR.
